I have been very clear to the chamber in relation to the addition of routes. I have also said the Prime Minister has indicated this is an initial list of destinations and more routes will be added. I indicated that further consultation with airlines and with industry and advice from Austrade enabled Townsville, Hobart, Darwin and Adelaide to be added to the initial rollout list.

What I would also say is that those senators on this side to which Senator Chisholm referred are superb advocates for their communities and superb advocates for their states and their region, and we hear crickets on the other side in terms of their own advocacy.
